点评:My husband and I booked a Canal du Midi cruise in the French countryside on the Johanna Somail barge-yacht. The booking process through Barge Lady Cruises was excellent. The yacht, which Captain Cowley designed and re-built, is a work of art - outstanding craftsmanship, design, and functionality seamlessly woven into an exceptional guest experience.
The Johanna Somail is beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean, and spacious, including two guest bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, inside living and dining area, an aft covered terrace for outdoor dining, and another forward outside lounge area with hot tub (hot or cool). Each day we enjoyed cruising a few hours and then visiting the sights in the neighboring French communities. Tour guide Barry, a convivial guide with Canadian roots, shared villages, abbeys, and other local treasures. Ana, our warm and gracious hostess, anticipated our every need and greeted us with a refreshing drink each day as we returned from our day touring the area. Chef Marina’s onboard meals were worthy of Michelin stars. The cruise far exceeded our expectations, and we will cherish our week aboard the Johanna Somail yacht for years to come.
翻译:我和丈夫通过Barge Lady Cruises预订了乘坐Johanna Somail号游船沿法国乡村地区的米迪运河进行的游轮之旅。整个预订过程非常顺利。这艘游船由考利船长亲自设计并重建,堪称一件艺术品——精湛的工艺、独特的设计与卓越的功能性完美结合,为旅客带来了无与伦比的体验。
Johanna Somail号内部装饰精美,干净整洁且空间宽敞,配有两间带独立卫浴的客房。室内设有起居室和餐厅,船尾还有一个带顶棚的露台可供户外用餐;船首另设有一处户外休息区,里面配有热水或冷水浴缸。每天我们都会航行数小时,随后去游览周边法语区的景点。导游巴里是一位有着加拿大血统、风趣幽默的向导,他带领我们探访了当地的村庄、修道院以及其他特色景点。我们的热情好客的女主人安娜也给予了我们无微不至的照料。工作人员预料到了我们的各种需求;每天当我们游览完当地景点归来时,他们都会为我们送上清凉的饮料。玛丽娜主厨烹制的船上餐点堪称米其林星级水准。这次游轮之旅远远超出了我们的期望,今后多年里,我们都会珍视在约翰娜·索迈尔游轮上度过的这一周。
